Answer:
Final temperature: 659.8ºC
Expansion work: 3*75=225 kJ
Internal energy change: 275 kJ
Explanation:
First, considering both initial and final states, write the energy balance:
Q is the only variable known. To determine the work, it is possible to consider the reversible process; the work done on a expansion reversible process may be calculated as:
The pressure is constant, so: (There is a multiplication by 100 due to the conversion of bar to kPa)
So, the internal energy change may be calculated from the energy balance (don't forget to multiply by the mass):
On the other hand, due to the low pressure the ideal gas law may be appropriate. The ideal gas law is written for both states:
Subtracting the first from the second:
Isolating :
Assuming that it is water steam, n=0.1666 kmol

Answer:
a) ²²⁴Ra₈₈ ---> α + ²²⁰Rn₈₆ + Q
b) the Q-value of this reaction is 5.789 MeV
c) the energies (in MeV) of the two associated alpha particles are; 5.69 MeV and 5.449 Mev
Explanation:
a)
The decay equation for the alpha decay is expressed as;
²²⁴Ra₈₈ ---> α + ²²⁰Rn₈₆ + Q
b)
Calculate the Q-value (in MeV) of this reaction.
Q = Mparent - Mdaughter -Mg
Q = MRa - MRn -Mg
= 224.020202 - 220.011384 - 4.00260305
= 0.00621495 amu
= 5.789 MeV
therefore the Q-value of this reaction is 5.789 MeV
c)
Energy of alpha particle is expressed as;
E∝ = MQ / ( m + M)
now this is the maximum energy available for the daughter, ²²⁰Rn going to the ground state;
The energy of the alpha particle gives;
E∝ = 220(5.789) / ( 4 + 220) = 5.69 MeV
as given in the question,The other less frequent alpha occurring 5.5% of the time leaves the daughter nucleus in an excited state of 0.241 MeV above the ground state.
Therefore the energy of this alpha is
E∝ = 5.69 - 0.241 = 5.449 Mev
Therefore the energies (in MeV) of the two associated alpha particles are; 5.69 MeV and 5.449 Mev
